Regarding your alignment specs, I'm assuming you meant negative 1.2 rear camber so the only things I'd suggest is to get more front camber with the OEM crash bolts and put in a touch of toe in for the rear. But, again, it is driver preference.

- Now, what is the most appreciative bias when it comes to camber on this car?

I'm not talking about tracking or autocross, just street driving.
I don't need or want the car to be set up for the track because I don't track the car. I'm on the street 99.99% of the time.

Yes, the car feels very mechanical and snappy like an older sports car did when it came off the lot, brand new. Easier to manipulate...

I've found myself inducing oversteer on purpose to exit corners quicker. It's very nifty but also a drawback when you're hitting uphill hair-pins and you lock up.
